unless the services run around at 30-40 min freq. furthermore the style of the routes is very un- SMRT. why would they introduce to TPY when theres 966 and to PSR when theres 969.Originally posted by service_238:logistically they already dont have enough buses. (maybe enough for 1 route) What makes you think they are able to introduce so many services at the current capacity?
I think this is the most absurd suggestion of a new route.Originally posted by Kheng Peng:
Even if they were to buy another 50 buses where in the world they will park the buses?Scrap more old buses?Originally posted by service_238:logistically they already dont have enough buses.

squeeze in more spaces in yishun or bt batok?Originally posted by carbikebus:Even if they were to buy another 50 buses where in the world they will park the buses?Scrap more old buses?
Woodlands and SBW currently doesnt have Overnight parking. On top of that, there is still a Geylang Lor 1 Terminal.Originally posted by carbikebus:Even if they were to buy another 50 buses where in the world they will park the buses?Scrap more old buses?
I believe there is enough space around the Yishun Industrial Estates to accomodate a Yishun Depot or YIDEP. There is a very huge piece of land between Yishun and Sembawang. However it could be used to develop more housing estates soon.Originally posted by ^tamago^:squeeze in more spaces in yishun or bt batok?
maybe we'll have WRIBP.
I don't think SMRTB has the money to spare to bid and build a new depot lor.Originally posted by Oceane:I believe there is enough space around the Yishun Industrial Estates to accomodate a Yishun Depot or YIDEP.

Currently the only apartments close to Yishun Industrial Estates and beyond into the forested area is the Yishun Emerald/Sapphire.
Do u know that none of the SMRTB depots are owned by them ? They are all under lease from some company.Originally posted by Oceane:I believe there is enough space around the Yishun Industrial Estates to accomodate a Yishun Depot or YIDEP.

Actually WRIBP could be a good idea. There are simply too many lots in WRI that they can parkOriginally posted by ^tamago^:squeeze in more spaces in yishun or bt batok?
